GENERAL INFORMATION
The batteries supplied with an electric Club Car vehicle are different from those supplied with an automobile.
The outward appearance of these two batteries is similar, but the operating characteristics are very different.
The Club Car electric vehicle battery is a deep-cycle battery, and the automotive battery is a “starting, lighting
and ignition” (SLI) battery. They should never be substituted for one another.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-1.

WARNING
• To prevent electrolyte leakage from the battery vents, batteries must be kept in an upright
position. Tipping a battery beyond a 45° angle in any direction can allow a small amount of
electrolyte to leak out the vent hole. Do not exceed this 45° angle when lifting, carrying, or
installing batteries. Battery acid can cause severe personal injury to skin or eyes, and can
damage clothing.
1. Before removing batteries, note the orientation of the batteries and the connecting wires. Disconnect the
battery cables as instructed. See WARNING “To avoid unintentionally starting...” in General Warn-
ings, Section 1, Page 1-1. Remove remaining wires and batteries. See Wiring Diagrams, Section 11,
Page 11-2.
2. Visually inspect the new batteries for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
